[femlisp-user] Femlisp-0.9.3 in CVS for testing

[Nicolas Neuss]

Hello,

A preliminary version of Femlisp-0.9.3 is available via CVS for testing.
>From the CHANGES file:

----------------------------------------------------------------
* From Femlisp-0.9.2 to Femlisp-0.9.3:

All docstrings should be written in Texinfo format.  A reference manual is
automatically built from them (similarly to what Rudi Schlatte did for
SBCL).

The slots STRUCTURE-INFORMATION and DISCRETIZATION-INFO were replaced by a
general PROPERTIES slot which is to be added by adding a PROPERTY-MIXIN to
the superclasses.

Finite elements of polynomial degree @math{p} are integrated now with
@math{p+1} Gauss points also for simplices.  (Otherwise, the scheme is
unstable for reaction terms.)

The functions ASSEMBLE-INTERIOR and FE-CELL-GEOMETRY handle now metric and
volume form defined as properties on the domain patches.  This can be used,
for example, to treat problems in cylinder coordinates.

The formula for the area of higher-dimensional spans in matlisp;compat.lisp
was simplified to sqrt(det(A^t A)).

The possibility to build Femlisp with MK-DEFSYSTEM was reintroduced.  The
files femlisp.asd and femlisp.system are identical.

The dependency on CL-PPCRE was removed.  CL-PPCRE is a nice package, but
Femlisp does not need it at the moment.
----------------------------------------------------------------

Yours, Nicolas.
